Tetanus bacillus bacteria are cultured to produce tetanus toxin used in an inactive form for the tetanus vaccine. The amount of toxin produced per batch increases with time and then decrease as the culture becomes unstable. The variable t is the time in hours after the culture has started, and y t is the yield of toxin in grams. (See Example 6) a. Use regression to find a quadratic function to model the data. b. At what time is the yield the greatest? Round to the nearest hour. c. What is the maximum yield? Round to the nearest gram.

1. Show that the vector field
F(x, y, z)
=
(2x sin ye³)ix² cos yj + (3xe³ +5)k
satisfies the necessary conditions for a conservative vector field, and find a potential function for
F.
1. Newton's Law of Gravitation (an example of an inverse square law) states that the magnitude
of the gravitational force between two objects with masses m and M is
|F|
mMG
|r|2
where r is the distance between the objects, and G is the gravitational constant. Assume that the
object with mass M is located at the origin in R³. Then, the gravitational force field acting on
the object at the point r = (x, y, z) is given by
F(x, y, z) =
mMG
r3
r.
mMG
mMG
Show that the scalar vector field f(x, y, z) =
=
is a potential function for
r
√√x² + y² .
Fi.e. show that F = Vf.
Remark: f is the negative of the physical potential energy, because F = -V(-ƒ).
2. Suppose f(x) = 3x² - 5x. Show all your work for the problems below.
